I didn't say either, I meant it was in the repos for easy installation. You can also get the raw text, as well as the concordance-creating tools, with "apt source bible-kjv". The Bible text looks like the following: $ head -3 bible.rawtext Holy Bible, Authorized (King James) Version. Textfile 930105. Ge1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Ge1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. However, I saw in another post that you don't prefer the kjv, so I guess this won't be much use to you. > I > have > > amazon.com/Modern-Liturgy-Hours-2025-Contemporary-ebook/dp/B0DM94P5QF > > on my Kindle.

I didn't think there was such a relationship with Ubuntu, just pointing out that you can get a helpful tool from the default repos. (However, one might consider that the gift culture of the "spirit of Ubuntu" could be compared to the early Christian communities.) -- -v System76 Thelio Mega v1.1 x86_64 NVIDIA RTX 3090 Ti OS: Linux 6.14.2 Release: Mint 22.1 Mem: 258G "Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity."
